    Taking the “one trip from the car to inside” mentality quite a bit too far.

      No point in panic if you can’t do anything about the situation.

      It was fairly obvious in which direction they’re going to fall.

        You think that until some piece of metal that was under tension springs out and flies into your face.

    Forklifts were doing better than I thought, until it tipped over.

    I would have lifted up, then pulled the train out, then lowered and pulled manageable quantities.

      Actually, everything should be done by crane, but I guess management told them to use the forklifts cuz getting and assembling one on site costs a lot.

        Does a crane cost more or less than this fuck up?

          No, but tell that to Bob from management, who is not an engineer.

          I’ve been in situations like that. You just don’t do it. Also, explain why in written form and have that stamped and submitted.

    Tandem fork-lifting should be an Olympic sport.
